Quick Summary
The United States Coast Guard (USCG) is conducting market research through a Sources Sought Notice to identify potential sources capable of providing factory new Honeywell spares for its HC-130J aircraft. This is not a solicitation, but an information-gathering effort to determine industry capabilities. Responses are due May 1, 2026.
Purpose & Scope
The USCG seeks to identify sources for various competitive Honeywell spares. The specific parts and quantities are detailed in "Attachment 1 – List of Components – 70Z03826IH0000024." These parts are proprietary to identified Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), and the USCG does not possess or provide specifications, plans, drawings, or other technical data. The market research aims to survey the market and assist the USCG in determining possible sources for future consideration.
